Despite the total absence of traditional isntrumental music, Kelso got an incredible turn out for the first of our 'enterprise board' backed publicised sessions on Friday. There was standing room only. It was pretty much all songs, but 75 per cent traditional (with the usual modern stuff like BTTW, Athenry and Caledonia by dint of requests). No difficult drunks except one young man locked out by the barman who barred the door the moment he tried to get in, and called the polis. Lots of good singing and reasonable hush when needed. We could seriously have done with some traditional inst - fiddle and whistle, whatever. I did bring along a few whistles but you wouldn't recognise what I do with them as anything resembling music :-) David Posted to Scots-L - The Traditional Scottish Music & Culture List - To subscribe/unsubscribe, point your browser to: http://www.tullochgorm.com/lists.html
